Jaume Serra Brut

Vineyards :

The white varietals of Parellada, Chardonnay, Macabeo and Xarel-lo are grown in Jaume Serra’s vineyards situated in the Alt Penedés, a sub region of the Penedés. These are the predominant varieties used in our world famous Jaume Serra Cristalino Cava. Beginning in 1999, experimentation was undertaken to determine which varietals would thrive in the area of the estate, and exhausted vines were removed and replaced with the white varietals above as well as Merlot, Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon.

In addition to their own estate grown grapes, the winery has established unique, long-term contracts with growers in the Penedés region. Under these agreements, control and maintenance of the vineyards is undertaken by Jaume Serra to ensure their quality standards are met. From these growers, the winery purchases the white varietals of Macabeo, Parellada, Xarello and Chardonnay which are used in the famous Jaume Serra Cristalino Brut, Extra Dry and Brut Nature Cavas; and Pinot Noir and Trepat, which are used in our Brut Rosé Cava.

Tasting Notes:

This fine Spanish sparkling wine is made using the Traditional Method, in which the secondary fermentation producing a sparkling wine’s bubbles occurs in the bottle. Its fresh, toasty nose, beautiful citrus, green apple and mineral flavors, supple, lively mouth-feel, and clean, crisp finish make it the ultimate celebratory wine. Enjoy it on its own and with caviar, sushi, seafood, fried foods and Asian dishes.
